At this moment, three words came to Xiao Yao's mind: empty promises.
However, the other party is a genuine Immortal Emperor, so it doesn't seem like he's just making empty promises!
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor, who was speaking with great excitement, asked in confusion after not hearing Xiao Yao's reply, "Young man, why don't you say anything?"
"Speak up? Why should I speak up when you haven't even finished?" Xiao Yao said calmly.
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor's heart sank. She understood that the young man was no ordinary cultivator, and only such a cultivator could become her Direct Disciple.
Without further hesitation, he said, "Young man, I, the Immortal Emperor, will not beat around the bush with you. In short, I wish to take you as my Direct Disciple."
The Immortal Emperor's Direct Disciple?
That was indeed just like the pie in the sky that the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor had promised.
However, he already had four female emperors as his masters, each possessing unparalleled beauty and charm.
Furthermore, he hasn't even seen the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor's face yet, and under such dishonesty, it's impossible for him to agree.
But Xiao Yao certainly couldn't use that as an excuse, because that would offend a Immortal Emperor.
Especially since this Immortal Emperor is a woman, she might be extremely petty.
Xiao Yao looked conflicted, but finally made up his mind and said, "I really want to agree, but I already have a master!"
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor felt quite disappointed, but upon further reflection, he realized that it was perfectly normal for such an outstanding cultivator to have a master.
He then took a step back and said, "I don't mind, as long as you're willing to become my Direct Disciple."
"That's great! But my master might mind, so I need to go back and ask for his opinion. Please forgive me for not being able to agree to your request for now." Xiao Yao's handsome face was full of apology.
Upon seeing this, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor's anger instantly subsided.
For the sake of such an outstanding disciple, she endured it!
"OK!"
After saying this, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor began to activate his magic to connect with his true form.
Before she could even speak, she heard these words: "I have been reincarnated in the lower realm. If a cultivator appears who can become my Direct Disciple, you may hand over the Immortal Phoenix Token to them."
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor was dumbfounded!
She realized that all the excited words she had spoken earlier had come to nothing.
Something major must have happened in the Immortal Realm, otherwise the original body wouldn't have been reincarnated.
Therefore, she looked at Xiao Yao and tentatively asked, "Young man, if I were no longer the Immortal Emperor, would you still be willing to become my Direct Disciple?"
Xiao Yao gave him a strange look. He didn't understand why the other person would say that, but there must be a reason.
After putting his clever little brain to work and thinking for a while, he understood!
"Could it be that your original body has been reincarnated?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yao's incredibly accurate guess, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor quickly nodded and said, "You guessed perfectly."
Xiao Yao remained silent for a while.
Even Immortal Emperor must reincarnate?
If it's done voluntarily, then it's actually not a big deal.
However, if it is a passive response, it indicates that the Immortal Realm is facing an unprecedented crisis.
Sensing a worried gaze, Xiao Yao knew he needed to first appease the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor's avatar in front of him.
"Of course I'd still like to."
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor felt a warmth in her heart. She knew she had to do something, otherwise she wouldn't be able to convince Xiao Yao to agree willingly.
She then walked towards the first-tier Immortal Spirit Pillar, waving her delicate hand and speaking, "Originally, the original body should have come personally to accept you as a disciple, but the original body has been reincarnated and cannot be contacted for the time being. Therefore, I can only use my special powers to retrieve the Immortal Tier Bloodline - Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body!"
" Immortal Tier?" Xiao Yao was very puzzled.
In his view, shouldn't the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body be at the Immortal Emperor Tier?
" The Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body can advance to the Immortal Emperor Tier through continuous cultivation. If it is cultivated together with the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body, the speed of advancing to the Immortal Emperor Tier will be even faster."
After hearing this explanation, another idea popped into Xiao Yao's mind.
The relationship between the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body and the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body is clearly not that of master and disciple, but more like that of Daoist partners!
So, why take him as a disciple?
Is it about gradually building feelings?
Sizzle!
A series of noisy sounds emerged. Xiao Yao glanced over and saw that the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor was covered in mysterious golden lightning bolts, trembling all over, looking like he had really been electrocuted!
After a while, the golden lightning on the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor disappeared.
A crimson-gold light appeared in his hand.
With a wave of her hand, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor transformed into a phoenix with full, noble, and sacred plumage, surrounded by golden Dao aura, and then flew directly into Xiao Yao's body.
Just as Xiao Yao was merging with the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor lost his balance and fell to the ground. The color of his entire body lightened considerably, and it seemed that it would disappear soon.
Ten minutes later, because this was the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body personally nurtured by the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor, Xiao Yao easily absorbed it.
From then on, he possessed three Immortal Tier bloodlines: the Chaos Immortal Body, the Primordial Golden Dragon Body, and the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body.
The Heavenly Spirit Eyes and the Primordial Celestial Demon Body are currently Quasi-Immortal Tier bloodlines.
After sensing that Xiao Yao's internal energy had stabilized, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor spoke in a somewhat weak voice, "Young man, I know you want to see my true face, so take this Immortal Phoenix Token. It will allow you to be discovered by my true form, and then you will be able to see it!"
Without adjusting his breathing, Xiao Yao immediately opened his eyes, and what he saw was the already pale-colored Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor.
Clearly, the opponent must have suffered severe damage from just now when they extracted the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body.
"But I don't even know where your real body is!"
As Xiao Yao spoke, he stood up and quickly stepped forward, single-mindedly helping the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor, who was lying on the ground, to his feet.
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor looked at Xiao Yao and said, "You don't need to know where she is. Once she reaches the Immortal Realm, she will definitely come looking for you."
"I see! So, what regrets do you still have?"
Xiao Yao knew he couldn't save the other person, so he could only say such things.
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor's form was even paler, but he still spoke, "Young man, what is your name!"
" Xiao Yao!" Xiao Yao said immediately, as if afraid the other party hadn't heard him.
The Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor nodded slightly. " Xiao Yao! I finally know your name!"
With a rather cheerful sound, the Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor completely disappeared from Xiao Yao's embrace, as if he had never existed.
It took Xiao Yao a while to calm down, and she even took a few deep breaths before she could regain her composure.
Even though it's just a clone, it's really good.
Even if he were to meet the real Blazing Phoenix Immortal Emperor in the future, he might not be as good as this clone.
Just then, a system notification sounded in my ear.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the mission: Passing the Immortal level opportunity. Rewards include the Heavenly Spirit Eyes advancing to the Immortal Tier, the Primordial Celestial Demon Body advancing to the Immortal Tier, and the Immortal King Tier cultivation technique, the Immortal Xiao Phoenix Ming True Scripture.]
This reward is really generous!
The reward for Immortal King Tier should be the exclusive cultivation technique for the Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body.
Because it was a reward from the system, Xiao Yao learned the Immortal Xiao Phoenix Ming True Scripture almost instantly.
Hearing that two personal maids and a spirit pet were waiting for him, he no longer needed to stay there. But how did he get out?
Just as he was thinking this, a dazzling white light emanated from his body.
The next instant, he stood at the entrance to the Immortal level opportunity.
Before Xiao Yao could react, a beautiful figure rushed into his arms, excitedly using her spiritual sense to ask, " Xiao Yao, did we pass?"
"Of course! Don't you even know who I am?"
Xiao Yao replied, his gaze falling on Dai Tianwei, who had her hair tied in pigtails, in his arms.
Dai Tianwei completely trusted Xiao Yao; she had no doubt whatsoever.
"Let's go! Let's find a good spot to cultivate properly."
There's absolutely no need to accumulate points anymore.
First, the fixed opportunity points are all gone. Second, the points gained through random encounters are too few. Third, the Demonic Path and the Dragon Palace, the two forces with the most participating cultivators, have close ties with him and would not do something like feeding a cultivator with Little Golden Star alone.
Inside the residence of the Young Clan Leader of the Xiao Clan family in Xuanzhou City.
After examining him closely, Long Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise, "Look! Our disciple seems to have advanced to the third level of the Heavenly Emperor Realm!"
Xiao Yao was able to advance two levels of cultivation thanks to the Heavenly Spirit Eyes and Primordial Celestial Demon Body, which were upgraded to the Immortal Tier, as well as the Immortal Tier Bloodline - Immortal Phoenix Dao Primordial Body.
"That's impossible!" Bai Yun'er, who was meditating, replied decisively.
But when she opened those sapphire-blue eyes, she remained silent, her lips twitching, completely stunned!
Su Tanmeng was fast asleep, opened her sleepy eyes, and after just one glance, she was wide awake.
Dongfang Xuetong, who had just returned from practicing her swordplay, was puzzled by the scene and asked with a slight frown, "What's wrong with you all?"
"Look! Our disciple's cultivation has reached the third level of the Heavenly Emperor Realm!" Long Xiaoxiao explained loudly.
Dongfang Xuetong glanced at it and froze on the spot.
Three and a half years ago, when she took Xiao Yao as her disciple, Xiao Yao was still a person without any cultivation.
He has now reached the third level of the Heavenly Emperor Realm, becoming the fifth Heavenly Emperor Realm cultivator in the entire world.
Before this, there were only four Heavenly Emperor in the entire world, and those were the four in this room, including her.
If it were her, she would never have imagined that her disciple possessed such cultivation if she hadn't witnessed it with her own eyes.
He couldn't help but exclaim, "Our disciple is truly amazing!"
"Indeed! Really impressive!" Su Tanmeng affirmed.
Bai Yun'er's lips curled up slightly, "I'm already thinking about what kind of reward to give my disciple?"
"I want to give my disciple a reward too!" Long Xiaoxiao shouted excitedly.
Dongfang Xuetong, Su Tanmeng, and Bai Yun'er all gave Long Xiaoxiao deadpan looks at the same time.
Because they knew that Long Xiaoxiao was just stirring things up, or perhaps lusting after her disciple's body, and had no legitimate reason to want to give a reward.
Long Xiaoxiao snapped, annoyed, "Why are you all looking at me like that? It's not that I couldn't control my desires, it's just that my disciple has made us look so proud!"
"My disciple cultivated to the Heavenly Emperor Realm in just three and a half years. Besides his own strength, it also proves that we, as his masters, are very capable. Although we only play a supporting role, outsiders don't know that!"
After hearing Long Xiaoxiao's reasons, Dongfang Xuetong, Su Tanmeng, and Bai Yun'er finally stopped staring blankly.
Bai Yun'er asked curiously, " Long Xiaoxiao, what reward do you plan to give Xiao Yao?"
"Of course, I'll take him to soak in the Imperial Dragon Heavenly Spring!" Long Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
Dongfang Xuetong, Su Tanmeng, and Bai Yun'er looked at each other, all agreeing that this was incredibly tacky!
At the same time, he was also thinking about what kind of reward would be impressive.
